Merseybeast Songtext
von Ian McNabb

I went down to the fishing hole, with a line and a pole
The ice gave way and I fell in, the police went to
Inform my next of kin

But I didn′t drown I held my breath, I figured that I'd
Fake my death

As I drifted down the Gulf stream to Miami

I dried off at the blood bank, got a rental with a full
Tank

Headed south, not even thinking I was jammy

I′m funky and I'm free
This is how I plan to be

I'm a rockin′, good-time boy

And I can′t contain my joy, I can't contain my joy


I had a friend who took a wife - did too much junk and
Lost her life
He ran away to kill the pain - such a shame, he didn′t

They found his legs in Wavertree, his arms were in
Fazakerley

The Doctors somehow put him back together

Now he lives down in the Dingle, says he's happy being
Single

Smokes a lot of dope, and rambles on forever

One day I plan to own a boat, on bright blue water I
Will float
A good strong woman by my side, across life′s sweet
Ocean we will glide

For the unknown is the wonder, though you're frightened
By the thunder

It′s the danger that appeals and keeps you going

Though it's hard to know the answers, or the names of
All the dancers


Just as long as this delicious wine keeps flowing
